Trujillo is such a pleasant and enchanting town that one can spend hours simply walking through the same streets or sitting on a bench of some romantic square, as the city seduces whoever goes there, making you never want to leave.

Despite this feeling, which youâ€™re sure to experience if you go to Trujillo, itâ€™s best to escape, if only for a moment, from this seduction. You can visit the archeological remains in the city outskirts or nearby beaches, like Huanchaco, where you can watch brave fishermen ride out to sea on fragile â€œCaballitos de Totoraâ€, a traditional pre-Inca craft made with compressed reeds.
